Trowbarrow and peak limestone investigations...

On friday the team hit up the south lakes for some rock spankin'!

Having got close to wheelbarrow on the last trip i was psyched to get back on it. It went down 2nd go this time, tommy sent it pretty much 3/4th go after figuring some different beta from mine. beast. Its a quality problem and I'm chuffed its in the satch!

Both bob and gav looked good on the pit problem, gav having an epic case of screwing the pooch on the slab! I did Ned's problem (a tricky 7b) which, despite the slightly grotty starting moves, climbed really nicely using some funky footwork.

Byron was certainly on form... bashing out the pit problem pretty quickly before getting stuck into the lower 7c/v9 start. After stripping down to his boxers and declaring that if he did it he would strip off on the summit.... he did it. First 7c for him! He later smashed not bad dave at woodwell, his 2nd 7c... not a bad day for the B man.

I whizzed out to peaks after work yesterday. After a bit of a mooch at the tor i went to have a go at the thing, 8a, its tricky.

Vid of tyler landman beasting.

Its a quality problem, pretty psyched for it as well as a few other things i got shown there.

Home and out for curry and few beers with the fam, sweet as.
